XBRLMobile

XBRL technology is a world standard, based on XML, for the dissemination and exchange of financial information from companies and regulators entities in the financial market. Financial professionals need to analyze these documents quickly and objectively for decision making, which requires means to provide resources for analysis at any location the analyst is. The use of mobile devices to depict necessary information for the analysis of financial data is an alternative to timely make decisions based on financial data. An open code solution for data visualization and, an architecture disconnected to technologies is a way so that other professionals can contribute to the improvement of the tool and implementation in different computing platforms. As the screen of mobile devices is reduced it is necessary to perform a great deal of manipulations so that data are presented according to user preferences. Similarly, because mobile device is limited in relation to its hardware, data processing can be performed via Web Services, the technology that provides a standard environment of interoperability between different software applications. Thus, viewing XBRL data based on user preferences and their handling are provided in XBRL tool MOBILE. Moreover, although the proposed tool has been implemented for the Android operating system, its architecture allows integration with other operating systems. Thus, this work proposes a tool for visualization and manipulation of XBRL documents on any mobile device. A case study was conducted from XBRL instances provided by the US-SEC, which has shown the use and applicability of the proposed tool.
